| content":"Took some time off from Nostr and when I came back was surprised that there were still no great options    |
| for iOS signers 😞 Android’s had Amber forever. iOS users are stuck raw dogging their nsec or using throwaways, and   |
| you never get the full PWA experience because NIP-07 doesn’t work in PWA mode. With all the vibe coding going on,    |
| iOS users are not getting the full experience. \n\nThe reason why a signer doesn’t exist for iOS is that iOS kills   |
| backgrounded apps fast, so the usual “signer stays connected” approach doesn’t work. Workarounds like silent audio   |
| tracks keep the app alive but are fragile and will probably get flagged by App Store review eventually.\n\nI’ve been |
| working on a native iOS signer called Clave to fix this. APNs push wakes a Notification Service Extension for ~30s,  |
| which signs with the nsec in the Keychain and goes back to sleep. Key never leaves the device. Push proxy is         |
| content-free — can’t read requests, can’t sign anything.\nWhat works:\n\t•\tbunker:\/\/ and nostrconnect:\/\/        |
| pairing (tested on some clients, works great with @YakiHonne and @Nostur \n\t•\tPer-client trust levels with         |
| per-kind overrides\n\t•\tFull NIP-46 method set (sign_event, nip04\/44 encrypt\/decrypt, etc)\n\t\nHeads up: push IS |
| the signer, so notifications can’t be turned off — but I’ve routed them quietly to notification center, no banner    |
| spam for every auth.\n\nI’m looking for some help at this point. \n\nTesters. Use it, break it, tell me what’s       |
| confusing and which clients it chokes on.\n\nSecurity review. Custom NIP-44 v2 on CryptoKit + swift-secp256k1. Worth |
| being upfront: I’m not a cryptographer. I used Claude to implement to spec and tested against known vectors, but I   |
| want real eyes on it before people trust this with real keys. If you know NIP-44, NIP-46, or iOS Keychain\/NSE —     |
| please look at Shared\/LightCrypto.swift, LightSigner.swift, and the proxy registration flow.\n\nContributors. MIT.  |
| Known gaps: multi-relay bunker (proxy only subs to one relay, so bunker clients are pinned to relay.powr.build),     |
| self-hosting docs, more client testing.\n\nUse a throwaway nsec only for now. Don’t be a                             |
| hero.\n\nhttps:\/\/github.com\/DocNR\/clave\n\nReply or DM if you’re interested in helping for a TestFlight invite — |
| keeping it tight for now so I can make sure the proxy can scale appropriately. Drop in, poke at it, break things,    |
| fix them.                                                                                                            |
